Guitar World

@Airbournerock's frontman Joel O’Keeffe takes a break from the band's high-octane shows to sit down with Guitar World and talk about the band's self-titled album, their relentless work ethic, and the secrets to their signature high-voltage sound. Joel reveals how a YouTube fan taught him a better way to play his own riff, shares how to tame a screaming Marshall stack on stage, and reflects on the legacy of rock legends like Lemmy and AC/DC. 00:00 - Defining the "Gutsy" sound 01:03 - Producer secrets 06:54 - Learning his own riff 10:46 - Gibson Explorer is a "wild animal" 13:02 - Controlling Marshall Feedback 16:08 - Sibling dynamics 21:20 - My Teenage Rig 23:44 - AC/DC influence 30:35 - Remembering Lemmy 35:50 - Advice for beginners More at: Guitar World: http://www.guitarworld.com Facebook: https://facebook.com/GuitarWorld Instagram: https://instagram.com/guitarworldmagazine X: https://twitter.com/GuitarWorld TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@guitarworld_official #airbourne #acdc #motörhead #marshall #explorer #sg
